The problem of school children sitting on bare floor in classrooms especially in the northern part of the country is far from over.
After the Kperisi Basic School exposé which generated a lot of controversy in the country, it turned out that more schools are facing a similar problem.
One of such is the Al-suaredeen Islamic Basic School at Gulabani in Tamale South constituency of the Northern region.
The children according to Adom News’ Iliasu Abdul Dabre lie flat on the dirty bare floor to write because they are without furniture.
He said the pupils many of whom walk from long distances to school have to grapple for space on the floor due to the overcrowded nature of the classroom.
Iliasu who expressed dismay the first time he visited the school added that, the teacher cannot walk through the class to supervise class exercise.
I was extremely shocked when I saw the children lying on the bare floor” he stated while describing the situation on Adom Evening News Wednesday.
However attempts to get the headmaster of the school to comment on the issue proved futile. He told our reporter he has been asked by the Municipal Education Directorate not the comment on the matter.
Some of the teachers who spoke to Iliasu on condition of anonymity express worrying at the situation which they said is affecting teaching and learning.
They added that the lack of desks in the classroom has made most of the pupils truants – a situation they noted could affect the future of the kids.
But the Municipal Chief Executive of Tamale, Alhaji Abdul Hanan Gundadoo in an interview with Adom News, said the condition at Al-suaredeen has not been brought to his attention.
But he said if the school is approved by the Ghana Education Service (GES), desks will be dispatched to the school.
“We have about 500 units of desks available for distribution so if it [Al-suaredeen] a GES approved school, they will get some of the tables and chairs” he stated.
Alhaji Gundadoo said government is still committed to improving the educational sector.
Meanwhile, a promise by the Member of Parliament for the area, Haruna Iddrisu to provide desks for the school is yet to materialise

So if I move to Ashanti Region and decide to reside there permanently, I will be your SUBJECT?

Freak of nature! The slave trade is over, you sold all of your subjects. Just make a phone call and ask national security and the police service to take care of the problem within 7 days. Now that is what a dignified and powerful leader can do. On the other hand, you probably didn't utter those words. Our media is full of ignorant Twi-speaking shitheads. Trying to translate Twi into English can cause 3rd World War.

Opanin, you talk as if you are still a child. Any nice looking Ashanti Child is a Northerner? Have not read about the Slave Markets that were established by Asantehene Opoku Ware in the Northern Region during the 18th Century? After conquering Northerners he established several Slave Markets of which the best known was the Salaga Slave Market. Now you want Ashanti's to believe that we hail from our former Slaves when in fact the reverse is probably true? Ashanti Slave Masters impregnated Northern Female Slaves?
